Introduction
Recovering unpaid debts can be challenging. The UAE legal system provides several mechanisms for creditors to collect outstanding payments from individuals and businesses. A professional legal approach can significantly improve the chances of successful recovery.
Initial Steps in Debt Recovery
- Demand Letters– A formal legal notice demanding payment within a specified period.
- Negotiation– Often, debts can be resolved amicably with the assistance of a legal mediator.
Legal Proceedings
If amicable recovery fails, legal action can be initiated through civil courts.
- Precautionary Measures– Freezing assets or bank accounts.
- Court Proceedings– Filing a claim based on valid documentation such as contracts or invoices.
- Judgment Enforcement– Enforcing a judgment through attachment of assets or salary garnishment.
Cheque Bounce Cases
Bounced cheques are a criminal offence in the UAE. Filing a police complaint is often the first step in such cases and may lead to quicker resolution.
